Vancouver Stealth forward Lewis Ratcliff (in black), pictured making a quick stop against the Toronto Rock in National Lacrosse League action last season, has closed the final chapter of his playing career.

Veteran Vancouver Stealth forward Lewis Ratcliff has retired.

Ratcliff played 14 seasons in the National Lacrosse League for 14 seasons and finishes his career with 1,040 points, including 472 goals, 568 assists, in 212 NLL regular season and playoff games.

"Lewis has accomplished so much in his great career and it has been an absolute pleasure to have him as a member of our organization over the past six seasons," Stealth president and general manager Doug Locker said.

...

There is no doubt in my mind that Lewis will be a Hall of Famer in the not too distant future."

Ratcliff, 33, joined the Stealth organization in 2010 after spending time with Toronto and Calgary, where he won his first NLL Champion's Cup as a member of the Roughnecks in 2004.

His 46 goals in 2010 with the Stealth led the league and he finished second with 97 points in the regular season.

Ratcliff is in the Stealth record books in numerous categories including top 10 all-time regular season goals (183), assists (220) and points (402), along with being ranked top 10 in all-time playoff goals (17), assists (25), points (42) and games played (nine).

He was voted Champion's Cup MVP in 2010 after scoring five goals and one assist in the finals, helping the Stealth defeat Toronto 15-11 and win their first Champion's Cup.

"Retiring was a tough decision, but the right thing given my increasingly busy schedule as an owner and leader in two companies," said Ratcliff.

...

Ratcliff is also among the all-time leaders in NLL career playoff points with 81 (32 goals, 49 assists) in 16 games.

The four-time All-Pro was drafted 49th overall by the Roughnecks in the 2001 NLL Entry Draft.

His long list of accomplishments also include being a six-time all-star and winning the 2006 NLL All-Star Game MVP.

Ratcliff is the general manager and director of operations for the Seattle Starz and founder of Monarch Lacrosse.

"In addition to everything he has done on the floor, Lewis has been a guiding force in the development of the Stealth Lacrosse Academy and our Junior Stealth program in Washington State," added Locker.
